Hi folks,

I’m after a recommendation for a decent disc brake pannier rack. I’ve a Decathlon BTWIN Rockrider 520 for reference.

Thanks in advance,

Den

My mate who I go on tours with has disc brakes and has the Topeak Super Tourist....looks solidly made for an inexpensive rack and its been ok on multiple tours! Think he payed about £25 for it a couple of years ago...

Hi mate,

thanks for the reply. Looked at one of those this weekend and bought one! A bit fiddly to fit but perfect once installed.

cheers, Den

Tubus Disco, or simply the adapters if you already have a rack.

I find it depends on your frame and caliper.

My touring bike has a Tortec Tour rack - not intended for disk brake bikes, but just clears the caliper by a couple of mm. Slightly awkward to adjust the brakes when it's on, but no big deal - solid in use.

Last tour, a friend of mine had a Topeak disk one and had problems with it rattling because of trying to get it tight with the big bosses.
